    Most of my FB friends have updated their status and changed their names that very night. I'm not surprised that people would do it at the altar.
    I must admit, I am a little tired of people wanting to make their wedding SOOO unique and funny that it ends up a youtube sensation. (I'm an enabler, though -- I'm already sending this link to other friends. Gah!)

    It looks like all involved enjoyed it-- so power to you!

    On a pure sappy level, however, I have to admit that little split second before the kiss is often very romantic and magical. At least their moment will be memorable! Congrats to the Facebook/Twitter couple.

    @wtfox?!: I am friends with one of those couples. I keep saying that after the next vomit-inducing status update I'm going to submit them to STFU, Marrieds, but then I worry they'd find out I did it and I'd feel bad. But seriously, there was one update about "zomg I haven't spent a night without you since June!" and I was like, gag me.

    @Maritsa: I have a feeling they're not going to wait that long. The STFU will begin well before the first sonogram picture.

    And you know she's going to post to FB the second the tech points to the screen and says "you can see his little penis!"

    This makes me long for the good old days, when the groom would stand at the alter and etch this type of announcement into a stone tablet.

    @BabyJane: After papyrus was developed, the bride's mother, upon seeing her new son-in-law write out "TTLY GETTIN LAID 2NITE" in his FaceScroll, hissed "How tacky" to her husband and at the reception made sure her daughter knew what a Huge Mistake she'd just made.

    What's weird is that it looks like this is in a church. I could actually think this was funny if the wedding ceremony was super laid back and more secular than religious (I think there's an interesting conversation to be had about whether for some people being married in the eyes of the webiverse is equal to or more binding than "the eyes of God", etc.), but when done at an altar it feels ... contrived? Silly? I can't quite pin it down.

    In reply to "Holiday Brides" Are A Growing Epidemic
    This is also a common practice in Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries -- a muta'awa, or temporary marriage is arranged so the the man/"husband" can have sex with a (usually young, inexperienced virgin from a small village) and then divorce her a few hours later without having committed adultery. The money factor is not important here, but the temporary wife's life is generally ruined in any case.
